Why that? I am absolutely not angry. Rather amused at your lame trolling technique! 😆

 

Ok sharp as a razor blade guy.

You keep telling yourself that - and you'll be absolutely right.

 

The idea that addiction is a lifelong condition can really hold people back.

 

It locks them into this permanent "addict" identity, which isn't exactly inspiring when you're trying to move forward.

 

It can make them feel like they're stuck in this battle forever, reliant on programs like AA, and if they relapse, it’s seen as this huge failure rather than just part of the process. Plus, it ignores the fact that not everyone’s journey is the same—some people do move past addiction without needing lifelong abstinence or constant support. It’s like a one-size-fits-all label that doesn’t really fit anyone properly.

 

This comes across in your writings. I am not saying you can go back to casual use of your poison. I am saying that the state of "post addiction" exists. You can get there. It's nothing to do with going back and casually using - it's about being past addiction, past rehab, past thinking about your poison all the time. 

 

It's growing out of it. 

Really,so I can tell people I know that can now they can socially drink again and the people who were on opiods that they can now take it again because they are now over it?  Great news for them.  Also, I know a person who gambled his 401K of $500,000 away at casinos that he can now just "dip his toes" back for a night of social gambling.  Amazing so this idea of yours fits for all addicts?  If what you say is true then why doesn't it work for all addicts?  So addicts who can't "grow out of it" do not commit suicide? "Everyones journey is the same"?.  I would say not.

Biden pardoned his worthless, law-breaking son, even going as far as to call his prosecution a miscarriage of justice. The venality and hubris is thick on BOTH sides but he Democrat leadership deserves the ire of the people, not the Republican leadership.

 

Trump abusing his presidential powers to pardon criminals should never have meant it's OK for Biden to pardon his. Biden previously went on record as saying he would NEVER issue a pardon for Hunter. Now he's a bitter old loser with a fragile ego, just like his nemesis, who doesn't give a damn how this flip-flop shades his already sh!t party.

 

So only non-criminals should be pardoned?

 

Think about that for a second...
